I like Justified, I love SOA.

Agreed with this. I had been meaning to get into Sons and just finished Season 1, and I honestly feel it's already up to the quality of my beloved Shield.

"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."

I also said this upthread but it annoyed me the way they had Harlan be almost a suburb of Lexington. But I think you have to fanwank some things.

indeed, chip.

just finished justified season 1 on dvd. i like it alot...and the notion of a different setting...

however, as a bluegrass resident, i kept thinking, jeez, it's almost impossible to get from lex. to harlan and they keep zipping back and forth every day and night. topographically, they certainly didn't capture either the bluegrass or the mountains of eastern ky with western pa and l.a. over and over, it's off-putting to me, although i realize it shouldn't matter a hill of beans to viewers not familiar with the commonwealth.

getting past that...i've loved timothy olyphant since the first episode of deadwood and walton goggins especially since he stole the last season of the shield. raylan and boyd rock, and arlo givens is an old reprobate. i like raylan's boss alot. a character himself, elmore leonard always comes up with some doozies.

alas, having long since given up our directv, i'll be waiting a bit for season 2, and thus won't be able to read this thread due to spoilers.

FX usually has the episodes streaming online sometime during the week after the show airs.

The Sox traded Bullfrog the only player they've got for Shottenhoffen. Four-eyes Shottenhoffen a utility infielder. They've got a whole team of utility infielders.

I'm with you there. Anyone outside the area has absolutely no idea of the distance, geography, and topography of the areas. For the sake of the show, it's just best not to think about it.

I was in medical school when "ER" first came out and every friday morning all we did was criticize the mistakes and inaccuracies rather than follow the storyline.

Ha, I don't believe we saw the Bert T Combs Mountain Parkway one time during season one. They must have discovered an alternative route between Lex and Harlan. Excellent show though. Looking forward to season two.

I was commenting to my wife last week that the Boyd Crowder character was very "neutered" this season. Right after I said that they showed previews for this weeks episode where it looks like he goes back to his old ways, Looks exciting. Love the show.
